Prostrate garden sprinkler base

ABSTRACT

A prostrate garden sprinkler base comprises a prostrate main body provided with a hose connector, a spray tube member in communication with the hose connector, and a shield for concealing and protecting the spray tube member. The shield is provided with a plurality of through slots which are arranged in such a pattern that water streams emitted by jet nozzles of the spray tube member are sprayed out via the through slots of the shield for watering a garden, lawn, golf course, and the like.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates generally to a garden sprinkler,and more particularly to a prostrate base of the garden sprinkler.

[0003] 2. Description of Related Art

[0004] The conventional prostrate garden sprinkler base comprises one ormore spray tubes which are exposed and are therefore susceptible todisintegration. In addition, the spray tubes are poorly arranged suchthat they undermine the overall esthetic effect of the sprinkler base.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005] The primary objective of the present invention is to provide aprostrate garden sprinkler base which is free of the shortcomings of theconventional prostrate garden sprinkler base described above.

[0006] In keeping with the principle of the present invention, theforegoing objective of the present invention is achieved by theprostrate garden sprinkler base which comprises a prostrate main body,one or more spray tubes, and a shield intended to enhance the overallexternal appearance of the sprinkler base and to provide the spray tubeswith protection against the effect of washer.

[0007] The features and functions of the present invention will be morereadily understood upon a thoughtful deliberation of the followingdetailed description of the present invention in reference to theaccompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0010] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a prostrate garden sprinkler base ofthe present invention comprises a prostrate main body 10, a spray tubemember 20, and a shield 30.

[0011] The main body 10 is provided atone end with a hose connector 11,a water channel 12 in communication with the hose connector 11, and awater control valve 13 located at the internal end of the water channel12.

[0012] The spray tube member 20 is connected at one end with the watercontrol valve 13 and is formed of one or more spray tubes 22, with eachhaving a plurality of jet nozzles 21 for emitting a stream of water.

[0013] The shield 30 is shaped and dimensioned to house the spray tubemember 20. The spray tube member 20 is concealed by the shield 30 suchthat the spray tube member 20 is provided with protection against theaction of weather, so as to prolong the service life span of the spraytube member 20. The shield 30 is provided in the upper side wall withone or more rows of through slots 31, which are corresponding inlocation to the jet nozzles 21 of the spray tubes 22 of the spray tubemember 20. In operation, the water streams emitted by the jet nozzles 21of the spray tubes 22 are sprayed out through the through slots 31 ofthe shield 30 for watering a lawn, golf course, etc.

[0014] In light of the concealment of the spray tube member 20 by theshield 30, the garden sprinkler base of the present invention looksneat.

[0015] The prostrate garden sprinkler base of the present inventiondescribed above is to be regarded in all respects as being merelyillustrative and not restrictive. Accordingly, the present invention maybe embodied in other specific forms without deviating from the spiritthereof. The present invention is therefore to be limited only by thescope of the following claim.

I claim:
